Gu Nian curled her lip, "So you do know pork is only worth a dozen coins per pound! Then Qinglin Restaurant sells a plate of braised pork for three silver taels per plate!"
That plate would be at most a pound of at, yet he still has the nerve to say it.
If she’d known Qinglin Restaurant was such a rip-off, she should never have agreed to let her big brother share the braised pork recipe.
"That’s not the sa, our Qinglin Restaurant is famous across all of Yunyao. Raw pork might be cheap, but after our chefs cook it, people line up to eat it!"
Listening to this, Gu Nian couldn’t help but sneer inwardly.
This fool probably still doesn’t know that the precious braised pork he talks about ca from the recipe of an unremarkable girl like herself!
Nan Jin Yu frowned deeply, directly exposing the truth, "Braised pork, is it the one you made?"
"Cousin, don’t let this girl fool you. What she made—it’s clearly what I asked her to bring back from the restaurant for you. Surely she’s not lying just to take credit?" Zheng Shaochen said, puzzled.
It’s a rare occasion for Nan Jin Yu to roll his eyes at soone, but Zheng Shaochen was honored to beco the sole recipient.
Big brother said his master kept his promise after getting the braised pork recipe, and he was quite earnest in teaching him culinary skills. Furthermore, it’s not fair to harm soone after they agreed his master could earn credit for the recipe.
Thus, Gu Nian said, "No, what I make is different from what they make at the restaurant."
In fact, Nan Jin Yu had tasted it and could easily tell the difference.
But since Gu Nian said it’s different, he naturally wouldn’t expose her.
"What about the matter with Wanzi, do you need my help?" Nan Jin Yu asked casually.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Shaochen quickly interjected, "Cousin, I’ve already ntioned it was just a joke with this girl. Our restaurant already took the Wanzi. As per the usual rule, as long as you can make them, I can eat them. You can’t sell them to anyone else."
"Ha, you’ve got quite the imagination, but it’s too late. This girl isn’t planning to sell them!" Saying this, Gu Nian looked at Nan Jin Yu appealingly, "However, I do have a small matter that requires Nan’s help, just wondering if you’re willing to trust !"
Nan Jin Yu raised his eyebrow, gesturing for her to continue.
"Here’s the thing, I bought a storefront planning to start a small business, but I’ve used up all my silver to buy it, so other aspects are a bit tight..."
"Hold on, what do you an, girl?" Before Gu Nian could finish speaking, Zheng Shaochen interrupted her.
"It ans I’m not planning to sell either Wanzi or smoked sausages to you anymore. This girl wants to make her own money and won’t let you bleed her dry anymore!" Saying this with great determination.
Nan Jin Yu had already asked, "How much more silver do you need?"
"Not much, not much, uh..." Gu Nian gestured with her hand, "Just five hundred taels. But don’t worry, once my store is up and running, I’ll give you dividends based on your investnt."
Zheng Shaochen scoffed, just about to say, would my cousin care about a little dividend?
In the end, Nan Jin Yu nodded, "Alright."
In no ti, Wuxin handed the silver to Gu Nian, she packed it up with a smile blossoming on her face.
Compared to this, Zheng Shaochen was almost gnashing his teeth, "Little girl, doing business isn’t that easy. Don’t end up losing everything and then have my cousin clean up the ss!"
